Many materials such as martensitic or ferromagnetic crystals are observed to be in metastable states exhibiting a fine-scale, structured spatial oscillation called microstructure; and hysteresis is observed as the temperature, boundary forces, or external magnetic field changes. We have developed a numerical analysis of microstructure and used this theory to construct numerical methods that hav...

in the present research, implementations of different computational geometry technologies in isogeometric analysis framework for computational fracture mechanics are investigated. nurbs and t-splines are two different computational geometry technologies which are studied in this work. among features of b-spline basis functions the possibility of enhancing a b-spline basis with discontinuities b...

Literacy and other interaction mechanisms have been shown to be important factors in determining whether and how individuals interact with printed and other forms of media. This lack of access to – or in cases, misinformation from – such types of media has an important social component for Construct modeling. This technical report describes the information access features in Construct, both fro...
